Anti Fed Ed Warriors, I was recently a guest of the Exceptional Conservative Network’s TV show. During that broadcast, audio technical difficulties prevented my message from being heard, or so I’m told.

I’d like to thank all of you who contacted the President to Veto HR 4174(Foundations in Evidence Based Policymaking Act). For whatever reasons, our voices, though many, were ignored.

Consequences:

Below is a screen shot of consequences we now face, due to the signing into law HR 4174 (FEPA) has in store for We the People:

HOW will FEPA immediately or chillingly effect us as Americans?
1) This might shock you, but all our civil rights (how we are treated) are assigned by our government. All our civil liberties (our freedoms) are also assigned by the government.

In the Declaration of Independence we were guaranteed the right to pursue life, liberty, and happiness as WE chose. FEPA removes OUR guarantee to live our lives as WE choose. It certainly removes all liberty, as well as freedom. It certainly will impact how we are treated. (Source)

1a) How does FEPA cause this? Life-long tracking of your life, your attitudes, values, beliefs, how much income your family makes, where you live, do you own a gun, do you beat your family, do you drink or smoke? Do you go to church?
Think of it this way Warriors, whatever data snooping the Patriot Act created on every American (thus helping gut FERPA, Family Education Rights to Privacy Act, as well as the SLDS and WQDI(Student Longitudinal Data System/Workforce Quality Initiative, respectively); FEPA makes it look like sissy stuff.

Why? The goal in the shift to erode America as the ‘land of the free/home of the brave’, has long been in place. It’s not been about our choice in life, especially for our students of all ages, for quite some time. The reason FEPA is SO evil, is in the systematic destruction of America, education is the choice weapon and data mining (aka: student data rape) has been the key trigger.FEPA, along with 2 others (HR 2434 College Transparency Act; HR 3157 Student Privacy Protection Act)were introduced during the 115th Congress. Each of these could work together or stand alone all have life-long data tracking (aka: open data) built in. The Big Biz, Big Tech, and Big Government have long been after our information of ALL kinds, FEPA now allows that…nationally, via a single, unified system.**The Bigs (as I call them) all feel we have NO right to our privacy and that it all belongs to them. Is is because they care about us? No, it’s for control and money.

Helping set up the FEPA for passage? Look below:

2) The Bill of Rights in our Constitution (1-10) find the most negative impact from FEPA.
The First Amendment is centered on freedom of speech. However, only the speech is protected. Expression isn’t. So, with FEPA’s constant tracking our every move, our every word, HOW we express ourselves will be closely monitored. That removes OUR choice of expression.

2a) The Second Amendment has been the most targeted, in my opinion, in recent history.
I’ve shared with you in the past how the CCSS (Common Core State Standards, rebranded as CCR, College/Career Readiness) have used anti-gun control as a key point in curriculum used. Add to that the ESSA, Every Student Succeeds Act’s mandate for ‘safe schools’ where not only anti-2nd Amendment rhetoric is attached, but every student must be mentally evaluated. FEPA will tie to the gutted FERPA and HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) in these mental evaluations, thus taking personal private data from your students with or without consent. (*Remember, since FEPA creates a data track for every one, student or not, you too, will be mentally evaluated and labeled accordingly.)

3) Our 4th Amendment states no unreasonable arrest or search can happen. FEPA guts this off the bat. How? By having our lives and homes constantly monitored, the government is already inside, so no searching will be needed. As far as arrest, with our other rights muted or removed, we could be found guilty of any number of activities. These by, default, plays right into the 5th and 6th Amendments concerning self-incrimination and our rights if we are accused. FEPA will assault these, too.

4) Amendments 9 and 10 stand to cause the most havoc in State level government. Nine assures us any right NOT listed in the Constitution is safe. Ten, of course assigns State’s rights concerning their citizens. State’s rights have already been eroded by federal laws, programs, funding, etc. FEPA will remove any State power and assign it to the federal level. How? That single, unified system of control.

5) Amendments 14 and 16 lay out citizenship rights and federal income tax. Since FEPA will use personal data (expanding it to non-census data, too) from the Public Private Partnerships (P3s) such as the FBI and Amazon. The IRS has now been included in that expansion. So have the HHS, ED, and others.
federal agency or funds you have used their services or received money from automatically will be used to tag you in the FEPA system. The more tags, the more compartmentalized you are until you are pigeon-holed into a certain sector where the appropriate entitlements and government programs will best suit you. Somewhat tied to the taxation is the 24th and 26th Amendments.

Those Pesky, “Unintended” Consequences of FEPA:

1) Whom you associate with will be watched and monitored.2) Your privacy is of no concern, even in your home and especially via all the “Smart Devices” you use. Big Tech is rejoicing FEPA is law, the data is all theirs, anyway (or so they believe)3) If you find yourself in need of a jury, who determines those who make up the jury?4) The freedom to travel where you wish, as you wish may become restricted, due to association, taxes, tolls, or for any arbitrary reason the government designs.
5) The freedom to religious worship, is at stake, too.6) “Evidence Based” is code for collection of data.7) FEPA bastardizes the weakened Net Neutrality, so everything on-line is open for collection. It also feeds off of AI (Artificial Intelligence) and will use AI to align and confine us.8) FEPA will use the 5G technology against Americans, not in favor of them. Don’t believe the hype that 5G will be a faster internet connection. A Trojan awaits in ANYTHING 5G. (BitCoins, Social Impact Investing, Community Partnerships, included those between cities and churches are a few of what is tied to 5G and a weakened State.)9) FEPA (a supposedly education minded bill) sat in the Senate’s Homeland Security Committee longer than anywhere else in Congress. Why? FEPA alters the infrastructure of America!10) Since FEPA attacks both the Declaration of Independence (based on natural rights and justice) and the Constitution (rules enforced by the government), every citizen should be up in arms and alarmed at what freedoms and rights are at stake!

Citizen Recourse:

Warriors, I’m sure by now, you are wondering what in the world we CAN do to fight back. I believe I have found something we can use to seriously land a blow to Congress and FEPA.

Consider the HR 4174’s track record, it’s full of broken procedures and rules used to ram it through BOTH Chambers. Congress claims there was no negative feedback (which would have given us a hearing). There was enough negative feedback to call for two hearings, but we were ignored. No debate, once HR 4174 came up for a vote on the Senate floor mere days before Christmas 2018. The vote? A voice one, again, no way for the citizens to hold Congress accountable.

Recourse #1: Since we have no record of how our Senators voted on HR 4174, we CAN find out how they voted on the Motion to Suspend Rules and Concur in the Senate! More than likely, if they voted to suspend, they voted for passage.

Recourse #2: FEPA is our enemy. If you need a better grasp on how Social Impact Bonds and BitCoins play into FEPA, visit Wrench In the Gears blog. Alison has done a superb job of explaining how both attach not only data to your profile, but will rank and file you like the Chinese Sesame Credit System. If you want a scathingly accurate account of how badly Congress dropped the ball with FEPA, read Dr. Young’s latest article on the subject. Of course, we have Jane Robbins’ “What is FEPA?” video and Christel Swasey’s video.

Recourse #3: Warriors, have you ever heard of the Unconstitutional Official Acts? I stumbled upon this while looking for quotes on liberty and its cost. Known simply as “-16 Am Jur. Sec. 177 late 2d, Sec 256” this Statute lays out how our U.S. Constitution beats out EVERYTHING.

It states that ANY act of any government official which violates our U.S. Constitution should be removed from office. No exceptions, no excuses.Closing:

Warriors,isn’t it time we shake up DC?! FEPA, along with ESSA, has GOT to GO!“Draining” DC hasn’t gotten us nowhere, especially in education.I’m not ready to have my freedoms taken away, and I imagine you aren’t either.

Anti Fed Ed Warriors, just last week, gathering in Denver, CO was the annual NASBE (National Association of State Boards of Education).

Trouble is, even Warriors Against CCSS, attended.

*(Note: The Gates Foundation awarded NASBE $200,000.00 in February 2018.)

The Fork In The Educratic Road:

Warriors, what you see, above, is just one of the items which was up for discussion during the NASBE Conference. “College and Career Pathways “Integrate don’t Bifurcate”. This was spoken by Paul Miura of the Commonwealth of the Northern Marianas Islands.

The Commonwealth is a Territory of the US about 4, 000 miles southeast of Hawaii. Paul and his wife, Dr. Dora Miura, were 2014 Teacher of the Year and2016 Teachers of the Year. Together, they are huge in the leadership of the Public School System (PSS). (*Note: ‘bifurcate’ means to divide into branches in a verb form and in an adjective form it is ‘forked’. From the Latin for ‘2 pronged’.)

Now, what I’d like to point out, is that in researching Paul Miura’s background, the PSSnewsletter I found, shows that the Islands appear to be (or were) a ‘testing ground’ for all kinds of CCSS Machine overreaches.

There was the ACT/Aspire (career pigeon-holing exam), there was STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and, Math), there was digital device overload, high stakes assessments, the accountability for school climate (safety), and so much more. The Commonwealth PSS is also under the micromanaging thumb of AdvancEd.
The newsletter celebrated the passage of ESSA (Every Student Succeeds Act), as well.

Warriors, take the time to read the newsletter, you’ll learn quite a bit.

So, how does Miura’s comment (as seen on Twitter) impact the rest of America?

Warriors, what Miura is saying is that it shouldn’t be “College AND Career Ready” Standards, rather, ‘College or Career Ready Standards’. Meaning you could choose either track and succeed.

What this educratic BS REALLY means is this:As a student, not knowing which path to take is UNACCEPTABLE. Taking a ‘gap year’? Doesn’t look like that’s an option anymore, either.

This is a blatant violation of freedom! No government, not even the STATE, should force students into a confined system. There are many students, young and old, who really do not know what they would like to do. It shouldn’t be the government’s job to steer them.

So, how’s this ‘bifurcate path’ playing out? It was reported during the NASBE conference, that the State of KY is going to restrict graduation from high school for those who do not choose ‘college’ or ‘career’. KY is a member of the SREB (Southern Regional Education Board). SREB was also a presenting body at the NASBE Conference.

(*Note: SREB is in the pocket of the Gates Foundation, among others. So we know, everything going on there is CCSS Machine aligned.) Warriors, read the article embedded (KY) first, then the SREB Report on KY. There are 49 references to graduation in the SREB Report. Lastly, when you click on the article embedded in ‘pocket’, you’ll see the huge digital connections between Gates, SREB, Harvard, and schools. The Commonwealth appears to have those, too.
***********************************
Also stated at the Conference was how advanced other countries are in implementing career readiness via education policies. The payoff? Better economy.

To find the WA State Elementary age Career Readiness program, go here.Warriors, the WA State Elementary program is a part of the Ready WA initiative.

****************************Then there’s the State-wide urgency to put as much SEL (Social Emotional Learning) into schools, at least that’s what IL’s doing. If you’ve heard of “Classrooms in Action”, that’s where you find 10 SEL targeted areas used on students.

Warriors, in 2008, the Gates Foundation gave the IL State Board of Education a grant for ‘college and work readiness’. Since then, the University of IL’s Board of Trustees has received several grants. One of which (2018) for ‘post-secondary readiness’.

Is there a connection to the IL State Board of Ed? Sure! The 2018 grant is to complete an initiative of the University for Community Colleges and pathways to careers. It’s called OCCRL, The Office of Community College Research and Leadership. The OCCRL is in the P-20W data tracking. (Preschool to college completion and/or workforce data tracking.)

We know Community Colleges offer dual enrollment, AP courses, and more. We also know Community Colleges have long been accessible to ALL ages and ALL education choices. However, the CCSS Machine’s alignment has been there (across the nation) for years now!*********************************

Bring In The Professor:

One big presenter at NASBE was Professor Micheal Fullan,O.C. (Officer of the Order of Canada) He’s also a global competency guru as well as one who spews ‘deeper learning’ rhetoric. He’s also considered a leader in education reform. Among his CCSS Machine shared information, he showed this to those attending the Conference:

Warriors, what the Professor didn’t share (that I could find) was the 6 Global Cs are tied to the Global 360 Education Model for Citizenship. I covered that earlier this year.

Oh, The FERPA Quandry:

Warriors, you know FERPA (Family Educational Right to Privacy Act) was created to help protect families from data mining, right? You also know that the FERPA was weakened considerably back in 2011 to allow massive of data mining to commence.

Every year, since then, the data mining has turned into ‘student data rape’ simply due to the amount of personal private information taken without consent or knowledge. It’s awful! You also know that recently I’ve shown you how the federal government has already earmarked several million of taxpayer dollars to increase the data mining, especially for mental health services. So, look at what NASBE just ‘happened’ to have as a Conference session:

So, how do data mining, mental health, and school safety intersect? Funding is the biggest tool. Also, as far as the CCSS Machine is concerned, if a student is identified as a school violence risk, interventions ensue. Anytime medical services are given at schools, 21st Century Community Learning Centers, or in doctor’s offices using IDEA funds (IEP services, IEPs include behavior interventions. Under ESSA, those interventions are SEL, social emotional learning tied to the UN’s mental health targets) or FAPE (Free Access to Public Education) funds (504 services), or even your insurance, FERPA and HIPPA come into play. (HIPPA stands for Health Insurance Privacy Protection Act). On October the 19th, during the NASBE Conference, FAPE funds and IDEA funds were discussed by a CO based law firm. (Caplan and Earnest). While I have no idea of the words spoken, I can show you a Jan. 2018 blog post from the firm about FERPA and what contents can be shared without the parents’ consent.

Think about the vast amounts of money the federal government has spent since 2014 to upgrade and increase the streamlines of data on patients. (ie: have you been asked by your doctor to get signed up for automated records? Once in that type of system, everything about your health is tracked and shared.) Think about the increased amount of questions and/or their content.

If you’ve not seen the vast amounts of loopholes FERPA has right now, you’ll need to read them! Enough to fill two pages. Notice how each of these loopholes do not respect what school you do or don’t attend. (*Note: this document also gives you the link the Obama Administration’s gut job on FERPA.) That ‘gut job’ is what carried over into ESSA (Every Student Succeeds Act). ESSA is what NASBE was using as its kingpin during the Conference.

Warriors, then there’s this:

You know, I’ve been dedicated to bringing to you HOW all of our educational choices have been and are being negatively impacted by the CCSS Machine. Homeschools have always been in ESSA’s grasp, the Conference just helped confirm it even more-so. If you’re still not sure how vast the data sharing is from a health perspective, please look at the featured picture in the header.

Related Resources:1) In 2015, I showed you the P-20W was inserted into waivers States were given. The trade off was: harvest more data and receive more CCSS aligned rigor. This article is dated, but it can help you trace where the data tracking is hiding. In 2018, we know that not only the ESSA mandates have this system, but that our federal government has inserted all kinds of back door P-20W tracking. The warning: the data goes global.

3) Did you know that the U.S. Dept. of Education had also proposed expanding the SLDS (Student Longitudinal Data System) in relation to FERPA? This was back in 2011. If you’d like to see the evidence AND find the comments made for or against the proposal made at that time, go here. It would be interesting to compare the US Dept. of Ed’s proposal to that of President Obama’s FERPA gutting Executive Order. Also along this line, the Parent Coalition for Student Privacy has a good timeline of how many times FERPA has been weakened along the way by the U.S. Dept. of Education. Because FERPA has rendered parental rights almost down to nothing, we MUST demand FERPA be restored to its original state.

4) From earlier this year, testimony before the Federal Commission on School Safety(Part of the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services), is this. Basically the expert called in supports FERPA’s data being shared with anyone, anyplace for the sake of protecting a child’s well being, both physically and mentally. He argues that without shared data between schools, law enforcement, and others, that children cannot be protected from danger, even inside their homes.

5) On Oct. 17, 2018, the Women on the Wall’s national conference call tied much of what NASBE was promoting (data mining, SEL, alignment to the UN) without knowing it! Talk about providence. Take a listen and share. Then compare that call with the evidence above.

6) EHealth, HealthE Schools, or TeleHealth and how it connects in a “Roadmap” form, this will be from a pro CCSS view. My research will show the anti CCSS side. (*Note: be sure to look at “Related Resources #1, 7, 9, and 10)

Warriors, as you can see there was quite a bit going on at the NASBE Conference. It appears not any of it was good. However, again, thanks to those who went in as Anti Fed Ed Warriors, we have much to learn from. I’m not done, either. There are a few more NASBE related items we need to learn about. Use this article as a study guide, or break it into sections and re-read them. I’ll be back next week with more.
